Mark, my best friend, Gifted me cheap fine wine For my 20th birthday But didn’t think to bring a cork ***** So like any other underage college kid We banged the bottle Against desks Against bed frames Against arm chairs
Pop!
Success laid in stabbing the stopper With an unassuming pen But pressure had built up And purple still stains my ceiling Our accident ******* painting Our unintentional Michelangelo memory But created with unrivaled passion – A combination of desperation and anticipation A testament to the trials of truest friendship.
